Commercial Removals – How to Minimise Disruption

All commercial removals require a savvy strategy and a lot
of pre-planning to make sure your move goes as smoothly as possible. If you’ve
been tasked with coordinating the move of a business to a new premises and the
thought of moving all those documents, equipment, and furniture safely and
efficiently is making you break out in a panic-infused sweat – don’t worry!

We’ve been doing commercial removals for years and now we’re giving you the stress-free formula for moving your
business with minimal disruption.

Start planning now

Time is your best friend when moving a business, and there’s
no time like the present to start planning. The earlier you start, the more
allowance you’ll give yourself for any unforeseen issues. The real problem is
knowing where to start. The first thing you should do is establish what you
intend to take and what you’re going to leave behind.

Hire an experienced project
manager / removal company

Seriously, if you want a hassle-free move, this is a must. Whatever happens, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to move your
business by yourself. Even if you can, you’d probably rather pay a pro than
deal with that colossal stress, right?

Using
the professional insight of a removal project manager will help you:

Develop a realistic timeframe for moving

Organise all of your files and sensitive documents so they
remain intact

Coordinate the disassembly and reassembly of furniture

Establish who you need to contact now (e.g. – your IT and
other service providers)

Assess the floor plans and arrange the layout for your new
premises

Having a professional on board who knows removals inside out will help you remain calm amongst the chaos of moving and
ensure you’ve got all bases covered.

Contact your service providers well in advance of your move (4-6
weeks at least)

Seek professional help and advice (honestly, it will calm
the storm)

Get the floor plans for your new premises and decide where
everything will go ahead of your move

Use an AFRA accredited removal company (they will be fully insured
to conduct commercial removals)

If you start to panic, take five minutes out to go over the AFRA
checklist to get back on track
